His Lessons......

It was the starting of the 9th standard and I was very depressed.

I had lost my friends as I had changed my school. I used to have a lot of friends but, losing all of them so suddenly gave me a great shock. Great enough for me to hate my life.
I started crying whole days and nights just in their memory. At the new school, no one was there to care for me, to encourage me, to make me feel better about myself and to improve my skills. No doubt, I had 2-3 friends of mine from the old school but none of them showed interest in caring for me.

But, I was really lucky to have someone who actually cared for me and fortunately never stopped doing it. That was none other than BRYAN......

When I lost all my friends , accompanied by my bestie Diane who was influenced by a Bad boy in the opposite class, I was left with only Bryan. But, he never made me realize that I was without my friends. He filled the space of 100s of friends in my life. He was there for me always.....

All I just needed to do was text him once. No matter, in whatever situation he would be, once I type ' It's Urgent' , he would leave all his work just to help me.

He only consoled me whenever I cried.

All the lessons which he taught me turned right afterwards. And I did accept all those in front of him.

Once, when I was missing my school very badly, I texted Bryan...

Me: Bryannn.....😭😢

Bryan: What happened?
Why are you crying??🙄

Me : Bryan, I miss
our school. I want
to come back....
I'm missing it
so badly....😪😭

Bryan: Ah! The same thing
102nd time. Come on,
grow up. You're not a kid
now ...😠

Me: Yes, I'm.
A kid, keen to
go to her old
school again.
Meeting and smiling
with those old friends.
Fighting with them,
Doing fun, making
mischiefs , and living
life to it's full. I want
to do all this, Yan.
I want to live my
life as I did years
ago, with a pleasing
smile on my face
and not with these
unbearable pain
and tears..😢😞😖

Bryan : Oh! Ms. Emotional.
Just try to be practical at
times. Your tears can't
change the situation, can
they? Of course not. Then,
why are you letting them
flow ? Try to accept what
life has given. Ok 'Al??

Me: I know, Yan.
But, it's not that easy
for me to do so.
I can't live without
those who made me
understand the real
meaning of life.

Bryan: Come on, Al.
It's all a waste of time
and energy..

Me: No, Yan.
It's not. Whenever
I try to recollect
those old days, my
face shines with a
great smile. Only one
moment of those
memories can make
me smile, then just
imagine what could
all our friends do?
They'll make my
life perfect. Crying
for them is not at all
a waste of time.
